A´nah (responder), son of Zibeon the Hivite, and father of Esau's wife Aholibamah (Genesis 36:24). While feeding asses in the desert he discovered 'warm springs,' as the original is rendered by Jerome. Gesenius and most modern critics think this interpretation correct, supported as it is by the fact that warm springs are still found in the region east of the Dead Sea.
